-Is it possible to trade the individual accounts (ie universal) in an IB Friends and Family Advisor Account?

-Can I use the FA Allocation Profiles or only use one account per chart/strategy?

- Can I test my Tradestation strategies via the IB simulation account I have? Do I need to purchase NT in order to do this?

Thanks,

RTS

I downloaded NT6 and have my Tradestation strategies setup ok using the email order handling method.

I will use NT simulation account to check rather than IB simulation account.

In order to use the FA accounts I would need to insert the Universal accounts that are in my FA into the workspace name...correct?
